The application of a magnetic field unexpectedly alters the rest potential of ferromagnetic electrodes in paramagnetic solutions of their salts. Anodic shifts of up to 60 mV in a field of 1 tesla were observed for 1 M iron electrodes in iron nitrate solution. The magnitude of the shift depends on magnetic field strength and orientation and it varies with the anion used. The shift is smaller for...

The electrochemical synthesis of poly(N-phenylpyrrole) film was achieved on pretreated iron and platinum electrodes in acetonitrile solutions containing 0.1 M N-phenylpyrrole as the monomer and 0.1 M tetrabutylammonium trifluoromethane sulfonate (Bu4NCF3SO3) as the supporting-salt. The results showed that a surface treatment by 10 % aqueous nitric acid inhibits iron dissolution without preventi...

Reaction of poly(y-ethyl L-glutamate) with N-(3-aminopmpy1)imidazole gives an imidazole doped polymer which f o ~ m s 6-coordinate complexes with iron(II1) porphyrins. Modified electrodes are prepared using these porphyrin containing polymers. The new matelids are characterised by cyclic voltammetry, UV-visible spectroscopy and by sui-face enhanced resonance Raman spectroscopy. The techniques a...

12 13 The removal of fluoride using red mud has been improved by acidifying red mud with 14 hydrochloric, nitric and sulphuric acid. This investigation shows that the removal of fluoride 15 using red mud is significantly improved if red mud is initially acidified. The acidification of 16 red mud causes sodalite and cancrinite phases to dissociate, confirmed by the release of 17 sodium and alumi...

An alternative method for the determination of trace levels of fluoride in drinking and sea-water samples is presented. It is based on the formation of the aluminium monofluoride complex in excess of Al3+ and separation of the two species formed (AlF2+ and Al3+) in a small (5 cm long, CG2) ion exchange guard column. The final determination is accomplished by both ICP-MS specific detection and p...

Abstract Background and purpose:The main objectives of this research were to evaluating the application of electrocoagulation process for 198 dye from the aqueous phase and determining the optimum operating conditions to the dye removal using aluminum and iron electrodes. Materials and Methods:The present study was conducted in bench-scale. The spectrophotometer DR 5000 was used to determine th...

the influence of aluminium on the microstructure of austempered ductile cast iron (adi) has been studied. anumber of irons of different compositions have been made by green sand casting and gravity die casting ofappropriate design to provide the experimental materials. austenitising was carried out at different temperaturesand holding times for a variety of experimental irons to achieve suffici...
